The left back currently plays for Napoli and it is thought he is likely to leave Naples this summer.

Here is what we know about the Croatian international.

Career so far

Strinic started his carrer at Hadjuk Split in his native Croatia but was moved onto Le Mans B.

After a one-year spell at the French club he left to return home where he played for Hrvatski Dragovoljac, he made 22 appearances for the Black Warriors, before departing to return to Split.

During his second spell at Split, he earned himself a call up to the national team of Croatia.

He left Hadjuck in 2011 to play for Ukranian side FC Dnipro, he was released by Dnipro in December 2014. The Croatian subsequently signed for Napoli and has amassed 112 appearances in over four seasons.

International career

He earned his first call up to the national team in 2010; current West Ham United boss called him up to make an appearance for them in a friendly against Austria.

Since then he has played 39 times for them but missed out on the 2014 World Cup due to a hamstring injury.

Strengths

One of his key strengths is his on the ball work. He is very good at passing and also very good at Holding onto the ball.

Strinic is capable of holding onto and takes advantage of off the ball movement. The Croatian is useful defensively as well, he is rarely caught out of position and his tackling is generally good.

He is very good at adding another dimension going forward.

Weaknesses

Although he is good on the ball, his final ball can be inconsistent. He appears to be uncomfortable when using his weak foot.

It is definitely a position West Brom needs to strengthen and rumours linking them to a left back are not surprising. Strinic could be a useful signing for the Baggies.
